That is actually a very capable use of a Galaxy. As one of the resident fanatical Galaxy pilots, I know a lot of the use and can see a lot more in PS2.

A Galaxy will generally drop its soldiers from the sky, and with some certs, they will be FIRED from the sky at the ground protected by a drop pod at super high speeds.

For your thought, it is quite possible a Galaxy would be called into Infantry vs Infantry situations, using its super heavy armor and multiple crewed guns to deal with the threat before changing objectives. Nothing short of a barrage of heavy missiles will down the Galaxy.

I would absolutely be open to the idea of allowing greater armor or weaponry as a sidegrade to dampners/pods to create huey/blackhawk deployment/extractions rather than the traditional hotdrop scenario as a bit of an optional change in dropship playstyle!

Oh hell yes! Not to mention, I want the ability to change out bailing certs for something else so I can use skill to low drop some outfit troops who train for such a special drop!

Also I wanna see people who refuse my services to go "splat". Will teach them to use a noob pilot.

I would also like some gal drops but not in drop pods, that would get boring after a while, whats more fun is flying full speed then pulling up at the last second and everyone bails out and hopefully survives.

Just have people sitting on the wings with repair guns!
